I'm setting up a 48"x18"x21" glass tank for Africans.
Marineland Magnum 350 and Emperor 400 filters.
Eggcrate from hardware store under the Tahitian Moon sand to protect the bottom from diggers and rock slides.
Water temperature is steady at 80F (27C).
It started off with nothing but actinic lighting as seen in the first image but I didn't like that. I may add the actinic back later but it will be mixed with another type if I do.
The second image is the left hand side with new bulbs in the light strip and rocks collected from the surrounding desert. I will be adding more rock when I can make it back outside in the daylight hours again.
The last picture is the entire tank. The dark shape in the top middle is a barely floating piece of driftwood that won't probably stay in there by the time it's all said and done. The other piece of wood on the right was thrown into the tank right before this image was taken and hadn't been placed just yet.
